Parallel Programming in Modern Fortran
SESSION: Parallel Programming in Modern Fortran
EVENT TYPE: Tutorials
TIME: 8:30AM - 5:00PM
ROOM:397
ABSTRACT:
User surveys from high-performance computing (HPC) centers in the U.S. and Europe consistently show Fortran predominating, but most users describe their programming skills as self-taught and most continue to use older versions of the language. The increasing compiler support for the parallel programming features of Fortran 2008 makes the time ripe to offer instruction on these features to the HPC community. This tutorial teaches single-program, multiple-data (SPMD) programming with Fortran 2008 coarrays. We also introduce Fortran's loop concurrency and pure procedure features and demonstrate their use in asynchronous expression evaluation for partial differential equation (PDE) solvers. We incorporate other language features, including object-oriented (OO) programming, when they support our chief aim of teaching parallel programming. In particular, we demonstrate OO design patterns that enable hybrid CPU/GPU calculations on sparse matrices in the Parallel Sparse Basic Linear Algebra Subroutines (PSBLAS) library. The students will obtain hands-on experience with parallel programming in modern Fortran through the use of virtual machines.
